Adrian,
I would think Steve Heath would be the man to help you with these.

I did look there...I had a vision of a rose jointed unit, rather than poly.

My only other suggestion would be to speak to Richard Thorpe at RT Racing in Sheffield

But I doubt you will find anything rose jointed "off the Shelf"

I think it was posted before it's best to keep them as rubber, as design requires quite a bit of compliance.

I think I've got quite a good compromise for a road setup. Standard inboard bushes solid plastic outboard and standard trailing link (or is is called a leading link??) I wouldn't want to remove any more compliance for the reasons quoted above. Ride seems planted and surprisingly smooth over the bumps.
